Nurses who took Bridging Courses

aj.skywalker · January 2017

Hello po mga kababayan.

Ask ko lang po sa mga nurses na nag take ng bridging program and nabigyan na po ng License as an RN and can work as a nurse sa Australia.

Pag pasok na po points then nag apply as PR, meron pa po ba nadedeny?

Iniisip ko po kasi na wala kasi sobrang daming nurses na kailangan ng Australia and hindi naman po nila naabot kahit 1/4 ng cap nila.

I'm planning to take bridging course po kasi to be a licensed nurse sa Australia then apply for PR para makuha ko po husband ko. Sa ngayon po we pasado na kami sa points, points po namin 65/60 pero I don't have strong experience as a nurse dito kaya di po pwede. So I plan to take the bridging course. Hindi din po kasi biro yung magagastos

Thank you in advance po mga kabayan!

Hi, as long as you meet the 60points and you have evidence to backed up the points that you are claiming then malaki chance niyo for a PR. As of now, marami silang kailangang RNs kaya while hindi pa nagbabago ruling ng immigration and even the ANMAC/AHPRA grab the chance.

You just need to have proper and complete documents para di madeny. You can't apply for a PR even if you meet the points if you didn't study here. You have to have your registration here in Au. So far wala pa naman akong naririnig na nadeny.

All of my hubby's batchmates are PR now.

Hi po,

Maraming salamat po sa pag reply niyo. Yun nga din po naisip ko na as long as pasado points with documents and licensed RN na sa Australia eh malaki ang chancce na mabigyan ng Visa.

Tanong ko lang po kasi according po sa timeline niyo? 3 years po kayo bago nag lodge ng EOI? Ano po yung kinuha niyo na course sa Australia and how much?

Yung kukunin ko po kas bridging course lang po for 3 months? ok lang po kaya yun?

Thank you po.

Cassey · January 2017

@aj.skywalker Hindi kasi kami nagstart ng Nursing kaya after 3yrs yung lodging. First course na kinuha ng hubby ko is Aged Care then nung narealize namin na walang pathway to PR, thats the time that he decided to take up Nursing. Nag1yr conversion course siya sa Deakin.

Around $30k yung nagastos namin. Pwede ka namang magbridging provided that you have an experience. Sa PR pa rin naman papunta yun. Lagi kong sinasabi sa mga RN na nakakausap ko to grab the opportunity while it's there.

It's a good investment for your family's future.

aj.skywalker · January 2017

@Cassey Hi Maam, Thank you po ulit sa pag reply. 1 year lang po kasi experience ko as a company nurse, iniisip ko po. Hindi po kaya ako mahirapan makahanap ng work as a nurse sa Australia pag bridging course lang po kinuha ko?

anoja · January 2017

mam/sir question lang po..hindi kase ako yun principal applicant..yun husband ko.waiting na po kami ng visa..engr. po cia at nurse po ako sa ph..ang concern ko lng..pano po ba kung pag nasa australia na kami at dun pa lang ako mag proces ng mga requirements ko para sa aphra..ano ano po ba un mga kailangan para madala ko na.. my course description nako and course syllabus,,pero kulang pa ng subject kase close na yun school ko ng college..pano po kaya yun..at pwede ba na ako na magdala hindi direct from school un mga document ko..thankyou po sa sasagot..

Cassey · January 2017

@anoja Hi, Yung sa hubby ko lahat ng docus niya siya ang may dala dito sa Au, not from school. Yung good standing yun ang dapat direct pero from PRC and not from school.

Cassey · January 2017

@aj.skywalker It doesn't matter what course you take kasi isang lang papupuntahan niyan which is your registration here as a nurse in Australia. Di nila tinitignan kung bridging ka or nag1yr study. Pag RN ka na rito, it will all depend on you kung gaano ka kapursigido at kasipag to look for a job. Yung kakilala ko company nurse din sya dati ngayon RN siya sa aged care. Just take things one at a time and be positive always.

Eventually, everything will fall into place. Just keep praying for His guidance and do your part too.

aj.skywalker · January 2017

@Cassey Thank you po maam.

gusto ko na po mag bridging as soon as possible. Pag naka utang ng pang tuition hehe, mababayaran ko din naman ata yun pag nakapag nurse na dyan sa Australia. Same lang po ba salary sa aged care and hosp? would you know po?

Cassey · January 2017

@aj.skywalker Oo naman mababayaran, Mas mataas sa aged care

honeybhugs · January 2017

Anyone here na NZ-RN and then lumipat sa Oz tru tasman mutual agreement?

Cassey · January 2017

@ivybuyuccan ang pagkakaalam ko si @eji888 ay NZ Nurse From our last conversation, he/she got an ITA already.

GhaieCee · March 2017

@Cassey Pano po ba yung ginawa nyong step sa pag-apply jn? Kasi po ganito yung case ko...may 3 yrs working experience ako as school nurse at 6 mos exp lang sa hospital. Nagpafree assess ako sa 1 agent at sbi nya pasok daw ung 3 yrs exp ko and i fall under RN nec sa SOL..i need to take 3 mos BP daw at sinabi din nya na pwede sa subclass 190 visa ...Binigyan nya ko ng services quotation but it's kind a expensive. Gusto ko po sana kasi masama ko din yung family ko. Pano po ba yung pathway na pwede kong gawin para mas makamura kami sa magagastos sa application dyan? Saka pano po nagagrant ng subclass 189 visa?

GhaieCee · March 2017

@Cassey Atsaka po pla naaapply lang po ba yung PR after mo ng BP? Lahat po ba start muna as Student visa?

Cassey · March 2017

@GhaieCee Hi, lahat nagstart sa student visa not unless na Nurse ka sa UK and NZ. Hindi ka makakagain ng registration mo kung hindi ka magaaral dito sa Au. Aral muna then registration with AHPRA then skills assessment with ANMAC then apply for PR. Pwede kang magBP with your experience as long as you'll meet the English language requirement. May mga agencies sa Phils like IDP and AECC na libre ang services. You can book an appointment with them and they will help you out with the requirements just for the student visa though.

Kung mag bridging ka its not advisable to bring your family with you kasi short course lang siya. You can apply your family sa PR application para makapagmigrate sila with you. To be able to apply for PR (189/190) you need to meet the points which is 60. Makakaapply ka lang ng PR pagkatapos ng bridging mo at ANMAC Assessment mo.

GhaieCee · March 2017

@Cassey Thanks a lot for that info and for always answering me.

Cassey · March 2017

@GhaieCee No worries,

Just ask me anytime.

sunshineee28 · March 2017

Hi, may I know ilang points ang kailangan for migration (nurse) @Cassey thanks

Cassey · March 2017

@sunshineee28 Hi, 60 points ang kailangan. Pag BP, hindi siya considered na Au education qualification kaya walang 5points for that. Pag 190, may extrang 5points for the state nomination kaya kung 55 plus 5 (state nomination) pasok pa rin for 190.

sunshineee28 · March 2017

@Cassey thank you po.

namica · March 2017

Will it matter po ba if kung san ka kukuha ng IRON program? If mag University or institute ka?

ulan889 · September 2017

@Cassey hi po.baka may idea ka po s FEE HELP na inoofer para sa bridging course. Bale PR na po kami then brisging course po sana c misis.applocable po ba ang FEE help s nurses.

cheng1003 · September 2017

@Cassey hi. i just want to know what they are doing when taking anmac? like what is the steps and requirements. thank you...

Cassey · September 2017

@ulan889 Hi, sorry I haven't heard of it yet. Maybe try to give them a call.

Cassey · September 2017

@cheng1003 ANMAC is for skills assessment. Once you get your registration as a nurse here in Au and you want to apply for PR, you need to submit your papers to ANMAC. They will assess whether you are suitable for migration or not. Requirements are almost the same with AHPRA's.

cheng1003 · September 2017

@Cassey so my assessment prin n mangyayari khit n nataposna pla sa AHPRA at my tendency Na di pede mag PR ba?

ulan889 · September 2017

@Cassey thanks po.PR n ksi po kmi pero c misis need mag bridging course..sana may nakaexperience na dto ng FEE help sa IRON

Cassey · September 2017

@cheng1003 Oo pag di ka suitable for migration hindi ka makakapagapply for PR. As long as mamemeet mo yung criteria ng ANMAC wala namang magiging problema. After ng ANMAC, magaantay uli ng invitation from the immigration or state bago ka makapagapply ng PR.

cheng1003 · September 2017

@Cassey ano ba criteria Ng ANMAC? pag ba after Ng bridging uuwe pa den SA pinas KC dba valid Lang ang student visa Ng 3mos dun n den mag aantay SA pinas Ng invitation?

dy3p · September 2017

@cheng1003 most likely uuwi parin ng pinas after mag BP. And hindi student visa yung makukuha nyang visa kundi tourist. Unless nalang na nasa Australia on a student visa taking other courses tapos nag bridging. Pacheck nalang din sa anmac na website yung process. Pero basically, magsusubmit ka ulit ng mga reqts dun including yung bridging course certificate and tor to them. Dapat din registered kana sa AHPRA. Iaassess lang nila yung experience mo if suitable, dun ka magbabase ng points na iaapply mo sa EOI. Pwede ka sa pinas mag antay at pwede din bumalik kung gusto mo. Kahit saan pwede mag apply ng eoi and later on maglodge ng application for Pr.

Cassey · September 2017

@cheng1003 Hindi lang naman yung kumukuha ng bridging ang umuuwi, even yung mga kumukuha ng 1yr conversion course kailangan ding umuwi kapag matatapos na visa. Just like what the above post stated, you can get another visa if you want to extend your stay here in Au or you can process your papers in the Philippines BUT you can only extend if there is no "no further stay" condition on your visa. May 5 criteria ang ANMAC but not all will apply to you, it would depend on your circumstances.
